This, at a time when telling African stories is enjoying a Risorgimento. Thus, in essence Mabeza "throws his fingers in the wind" and catches the zeitgeist of African storytelling. The stories leave the reader spellbound. Dispatches from the village has its finger on the pulse of the people.

However, when overwhelmed by the tsunami of negative news that permeate our media, pick-up Dispatches from the village to soothe yourself.
